Title: Improvements in Apparatus for Moulding Small Blocks or Cakes, such as Cattle Food Cakes.
IPC: B30B11/10
Filed: 1910-11-10
Granted: 1912-02-12
Abstract: 26,190. Downs, C., Bellwood, R. A., and Rose, Downs, & Thompson. Nov. 10. Rotary-mould-table machines.-Relates to machines for pressing cattle food &c. into small blocks. The table a, Fig. 3, is rotated intermittently by Geneva-stop gearing b<1> and is locked, when stationary, by spring rollers f engaging recesses a‹. A dual arrangement of feeding, pressing and discharging devices is described. Feed-shoots communicating with a mixing-vessel terminate in fillers c, Fig. 4, provided at their lower ends with feed-heads c<3> formed with perforations c<4>, which co-operate with an adjustable, apertured, valve g to control the feed. Within each filler c is mounted a spindle c' carrying mixing-arms c<2>, which, together with the feed-head c<3>, is oscillated by means of a crank h<0>, Fig. 3, acting through a link h<3>. The opposite feed-heads are connected by a link c<6>. Pressure is applied by plungers d<0>, Fig. 2, carried by cross-heads d<1> which are reciprocated by eccentrics j. The pressure is regulated, without stopping the machine, by adjusting the stroke of the plungers by altering the throw of the eccentrics through the medium of eccentric sleeves j<2>, furnished with worm wheels meshing with worms k<1> operable by hand gearing k<0>, k. To avoid straining the pins d<2>, the lower ends of the eccentric rods j‹, bear upon thrust-blocks n. The plungers are cleaned by stripping-plates m, Fig. 1<a>, which are held down, during the withdrawal of the plungers, by springs m<1>, and are subsequently raised by the cross-heads d<1> engaging with nuts m<2> or rods m'. A fixed plate o, Fig. 2, forms the bottom of the moulds during pressing and any material squeezed out by the plungers is removed from the plate o by spring-pressed scrapers p, Fig. 7, let into recesses on the underside of the table a, and from the underside of the table by fixed scrapers. The pressed cakes are discharged from the moulds by ejectors e<1>, Fig. 1<a>, carried by heads e attached to spindles e<2> which are slidably mounted in brackets e<0> and are reciprocated by levers e<3> pivoted to the spindles at e<4>, to fixed brackets e<6> at e<5> and to the eccentric rods j<0> at e<7>. The moulds are formed in interchangeable shouldered disks let into the table and secured by screws. The discharged cakes pass away through shoots q, Fig. 2.

Granted: 1911-09-07
Abstract: 17,480. Houskeeper, W. G. Aug. 5, 1910, [Convention date]. Filaments, making. In heating a continuous metallic filament by passing current through it while being moved longitudinally past a series of terminal devices, as described in Specification 7331/10, different sections of the length heated are now traversed by alternating currents in different phases, to equalize the expansion and contraction and prevent breakage of the filament. The Figure shows an arrangement for two-phase current. The filament squirted from a press 2 passes through globules of mercury with concave surfaces, held by capillarity in holes in amalgamated terminal plates 3 ... 9, one half of the terminals 3 ... 6 being connected to one phase through lamps or their equivalent, and an auto-transformer 15 or other regulator, and the other terminals 6 ... 9 similarly to the other phase.

Title: Improvements in Carriages for Recoiling Guns.
IPC: F41A25/00
Filed: 1911-09-05
Granted: 1912-05-30
Abstract: 19,765. Rheinische Metallwaaren-und Maschinenfabrik. April 6, [Convention date]. Field carriages; recoil apparatus.-Relates to devices for automatically changing the elevation of a gun from the firing to the loading elevation during the recoil. According to the invention, liquid is forced, during the recoil, from cylinders i, separate from the recoil brake cylinders and arranged one on each side of the gun, into cylinders c carried by the slide, and acts upon pistons d connected to arms a on the elevating- gear segments. The breech-end of the gun is thereby raised, and may be retained in the raised position by cocks which are automatically actuated to close the communication l between the cylinders c, i at the end of the recoil. The pistons g of the cylinders i slide on their rods against springs x during the initial period of the recoil until the automatic disconnexion, after the projectile has left the gun-barrel, of the latch e, connecting the slide b and the elevating- gear, permits relative movement to take place between the cylinders c and pistons d. In a modification, liquid is forced from the brake cylinders, in known manner, into lifting- cylinders, but in this case, the lost motion is provided for. between the rods of the pistons d and the arms a on the elevating-gear segments.

Granted: 1912-06-27
Abstract: 4040. Bateman, R. W., and Bateman, L. H. Feb. 17. Planing; shaping; slotting. - The feed-mechanism of planing and like machines is driven from a constantly rotating element and is actuated so as to give an automatic intermittent feed or a hand-controlled continuous feed. A rod k, Fig. 2, is rocked by tappets on the table and carries a cam m which operates a trip t engaging a wheel u. This wheel is loose on its shaft and carries projections 8, Fig. 3, which bear upon clutch elements 6 and press them against springs 7, thus holding the clutch out when the wheel u is held; when the wheel u is tripped, the springs press the clutch into operation with the driven wheel 3 and so allow one rotation of the wheel u and a cam 11 which it carries. This cam operates a toothed quadrant 12, Fig.5, which communicates motion through change-gearing to feed-wheels 22, 23, 24. The continuous feed is controlled by a handle which operates clutches to put one or other of the shafts 17, 18 into rotation and so rotate the feed-wheels through change gears.
